I have to malloc a lot of memory in the kernel, hence a few
questions:
1. The data must be absolutely present at all times, no page
faults or locking mechanisms, etc. Does that mean
I should use kmem_alloc_wired() or am I misunderstanding its purpose?
Does it make sense to alloc less than a pageful or is the rest simply
going to be wasted?
2. Unfortunately, I need to realloc a lot as data is dynamic and I
don't know sizes beforehand. How do I do that? Do I malloc a new
region, copy manually and release the old one?
Thanks a lot in advance,
Anatoly.
